Large bets on Sir Des Champs and Swincombe Flame yesterday ensured a profitable day. Notus De La Tour ran a blinder, only to be caught close to the line at Leopardstown. Captain Chris ran a respectible race in the King George, but KAuto Star's victory left the hairs standing on the back of your neck. Wonderful stuff.
